Position of Polarization Filters
Note
Fluorescence polarization measurements on the Infinite F200 PRO
require two identical excitation and emission filters placed together
with the polarizers either on the positions 1 and 2 or 3 and 4.
The Infinite F200 PRO filter slide can be equipped with maximal two different
fluorescence polarization filter pairs as each fluorescence polarization
measurement requires two identical excitation and emission filters, which are
placed together with the polarizers either on the position 1 and 2 or 3 and 4.
